The Miracle Doctor: Call Me Savior

Chapter 41 Putting Life At Stake For Money



In the building opposite Kingsbury Hotel, two men were busy packing up their filming equipment.

"Eric, what happened just now? Who is that man? He is quite strong." A yellow-haired man asked while packing up his equipment.

The other bald man he was speaking to was watching the video they had just taken. Spotting no problem with the video, Eric Wong waved his hand, "Who cares about that guy? We've got breaking news this time." "This news featuring the most beautiful reporter in Ludington City will definitely be a big hit," Jack laughed.

"Br*t, do you know who that man is? We have to keep the video carefully," Eric said with a smile.

"Eric, don't tell me that the man has a high social status! We can use this video to blackmail him if he does."

"You've finally used your brains. In short, this matter must be kept a secret," Eric ordered. "Hurry up. I have a bad intuition. I'm worried that something will go wrong."

Jack and Eric packed up their equipment quickly. Then, they put on a black overcoat and left the place hastily.

A figure was stalking behind them as they were leaving.

Both of them were doing something they were not proud of. Therefore, they chose to walk on obscure paths. In the end, they walked into an abandoned construction site with the equipment in their hands.

It was dark on the construction site. The towering ramshackle building was like a huge monster in the night. The rustling sound of plastic cloth ruffled by the night wind made the atmosphere a little eerie. "Hurry up!" Eric felt a little uneasy and quickened his pace.

All of a sudden, a loud noise sounded. Eric turned around and saw Jack lying on the ground. The equipment in his hand dropped to the ground, emanating a loud thud. The sound alarmed many stray cats and dogs that were wandering on the construction site.

"Who is it?" Eric's heart skipped a beat.

A black figure loomed under the shadow of a wall. "Hand over the video you took just now."

Eric's mind raced quickly as his hand slowly reached for the dagger at his waist. He was always in danger because of the nature of his job. Therefore, he would always carry some self-defense tools with him. He tried to stall for time, "What do you mean? I don't understand."

"Slap!" A piece of rock cut through the air and hit Eric's wrist accurately.

Eric let out a cry of pain, letting go of the dagger he was gripping.

Knowing that he was facing a good fighter, Eric broke out in cold sweat. After a moment of hesitation, he threw the camera box in his hand to the person and shouted, "Here's the camera. I'll surrender this time." He turned around and ran away.

The black figure caught the box and looked at Eric who was running away. He kicked a piece of rock at Eric and it hit Eric's back. Eric fell to the ground with a scream.

Zachary carried the box and walked over. He stepped on Eric, who was lying on the ground, and took out the camera. He turned it on and found the video inside. The video was featuring Aldred trying to rape Lauren, and it also captured the scene where Zachary broke into the room to save her.

"Sir, this is the original video. I've given it to you. I'm just a paparazzi trying to get some viral news. I don't have any other bad intentions. Please spare me," Eric begged for mercy.

Zachary said nothing and turned off the camera. Then, he looked at Eric by his feet and asked, "Is there a copy?"

"No, absolutely not," Eric shook his head repetitively.

"Really?"

"You can search me if you don't believe me. I don't have any copy with me," Eric pulled out his pockets with the intent to prove himself.

Seeing that Eric had almost stripped himself clean, Zachary nodded slightly, "You can go now."

"Thank you, sir!" Eric scrambled up quickly. He tidied his clothes and left immediately.

He took a glance at a pile of abandoned construction materials at the side when he was leaving.

He was an experienced paparazzi who had been in the industry for more than ten years. Therefore, he would make a copy every time he took a video and hide the storage card on his body. Even Jack knew nothing about it. He hid the storage card secretly in a pile of abandoned construction materials when he saw the black figure just now. It was impossible for others to find it and he would be able to get it back within a few days.

He had deceived many people who had tried to stop him this way. It seemed that this time was no exception.

The black figure suddenly appeared behind Eric just as he was about to leave. Zachary grabbed his collar and lifted him up.

"Sir, what are you doing? I've given everything to you," Eric yelled in panic.

Zachary pointed at the messy pile of materials, "Hand over the copy now."

He purposely let Eric go so that he could observe what Eric would do. Under normal circumstances, Eric would definitely take an involuntary glance at the location of the hidden item before he left. Zachary sharply noticed that Eric took a glance at the pile of construction materials. Therefore, he confirmed the location of the hidden copy.

"Sir, there is really no copy," Eric tried to act innocent.

Zachary didn't have time to play around with him. Without saying a word, he carried Eric and walked to a huge oil barrel. The oil barrel was half-filled with an unknown black liquid, which was emitting a foul smell. "Plop!" He threw Eric into the oil barrel directly.

Besides the terrible smell, it was freezing inside the oil barrel because it was a winter night. Eric soon felt his body stiffen due to the cold.

"Sir, there's really no copy. I'm telling the truth," Eric pleaded. The video he took was valuable. Eric didn't want to give it up easily.

Zachary kept quiet. He walked to the side and pulled out a wire as thick as a baby's arm. He cut off the outer layer of the wire with a knife and busied himself in the abandoned power station at the side. Blue sparks were emitted from the top of the wire instantly. It was giving off a burnt smell at the same time.

"Tell me or not?" Zachary asked with a cold tone.

"Sir, I..." Looking at the wire emitting blue sparks, Eric's heart skipped a beat. However, he still refused to give up as he believed that Zachary would not dare to kill him.

Zachary suddenly dipped the wire in his hand into the oil barrel before Eric could finish his words.

Eric immediately felt a sense of numbness spreading throughout his body. His hands were trembling and his eyes began to roll upwards. He almost passed out.

"He is really going to kill me!" This was Eric's last thought. He truly regretted that he had put his life at stake because of money!
